Help! I can't change my #6 spark plug (can't get to it)
 

I can't get to the #6 plug. The wrench won't fit in between the metal thing not sure what it is(?). How should I proceed? Thanks for your help!

Can you get a swivel attachment in there with an extension?

I did my plugs, tubes and wires when I replaced my valve cover gaskets (looks like yours could use them too, if you're looking for another project :) ), so I didn't have to deal with this. Everything was out of the way. I'm sure with an extension and swivel you'd be able to get at it, though.

Makes it a little easier :)

Can you move metal thing?
May have to remove or loosen a bolt.

I ended up not needing to move it. A long extension with a 5/8 spark plug socket could sneak to the right of it. Thanks Marc!

When I change my plug I remove the top bolt and loosen the bottom one on the bracket and just move it towards the front. of the engine.

Not like your changing plugs all that often

Thats what I've always done as well.
